The morning began with some new roller blades- which were unexpected both because we hadn't talked about it and she was getting her ears pierced as her birthday gift. It was fun to surprise her :)


Then it was time to bust out the face paint from the family party. Birthday girl gets what she wants!

Then swim practice (5 days a week! No wonder she has made so much improvement this summer!)

Then off to the mall for lunch and bungee jump. And Grandmommy made the girls dream come true. A bag of candy from the bulk candy selection!!
Then around 3 her friends came over and we headed to the children's museum.


Oops!

Sh! Don't tell them they are probably learning!

Then dinner- chicken nuggets and fries. Followed by 6:30 mass (said for Alexandra) -the girls were so good! Sweet little angels. Then off to the pool.
When we got home we had cake and watched a movie- can you guess which? Frozen of course! The girls turned it into a singalong.
I was glad to hear a little giggling and whispering after the movie but hopefully they did get some rest. I know my girl could use a nap today.

Hannah enjoying our birthday tradition- sugary cereal! Who doesn't want candy for breakfast? :)
I think Alexandra had a pretty special birthday. She said it was the best ever so I will take that as a success. Thanks to her family and friends- we have marked another year!
